The Daring Rescue of Ethiopian Jews: Featuring Yola Reitman
Yola is the former Mossad agent depicted in the Netflix film-Red Sea Diving Resort. Recruited by the Mossad, Yola facilitated the rescue of thousands of Ethiopian Jews fleeing persecution by acting as the Director of a fake diving operation on the shores of the Red Sea with the real mission to save lives.

The commander in charge of the operation will be featured at the Ann & Stephen Kaufman Jewish Book & Arts Festival. Want to hear more behind the scenes information and the heart behind this amazing story? Please join us.
